Happy heavenly birthday big sister, I think of you often and want you to know how much I miss you. So often I sit and think back about all the great times we had together, and how hard it was to leave all my beloved family behind, when Dave moved me and Michael out west to Calgary in 1977. I missed out on so many years with my family/aunts/uncles/cousins/grandparents/ friends, and now so many have passed on. It’s so hard to visit my hometown knowing everyone is gone, the houses are empty, and I feel so heartbroken now. Someday we will be all together again in God’s Kingdom, where pain and sorrow will be no more, and our family will be “whole” again. Until we meet again, love you sis, and enjoy this special day. Hugs❤️❤️

My darling big sister, it’s been 10 years since your passing, and I miss you today, as much as the day you left us. I think of you often and wish we could sit down and chat like old times, like the old days. We had some pretty good times, and will again someday Sis. Brother says “hello” and misses you so much too, we just hung up from reminiscing about those good old days when we spent so much time at your place, and brother David spoke of how much he loved Doris and Ken. It’s not the same around Orville since so many passed away. I sure have a hard time emotionally when I see your house knowing you are no longer thereit’s so sad. When it’s my time, I hope you, Mom, Judy and Grandmother will come take me by the hand, to guide me home to our Heavenly Father, so we can all rest peacefully eternally. Till then, love you you big sister

Happy 79th Heavenly Birthday dearest Big Sister,. I am missing you more and more as time goes by. Can you see the mess of this world, no future for any of us , not even our grandchildren. God is watching over me until I can join the rest of our family. You have Gram, Mom, Judy, Eddy, Dad, Alan, Nancy, Albert, Lucy, etc there with you, where you are safe in Gods arms. Many relatives have joined you and Marshall, Sally, and Steven have recently added to our heavenly home, I am not too far behind. Hope you all will come to help me home, till then, love you

Another year gone by without you dear sister, I still miss you so muchwe are now into Covid-19, on lockdown, and it’s Christmas in two days. Going to be very lonely as we can’t even gather with my kids and grandchildren this year. Maybe this is what was trying to tell us as she was dying. You are now safe with God in heaven, with all our family including Judy who joined you all two years ago. I miss you all so much sis, but you are safe there, I don’t have to worry about anyone catching this virus. Gord, David and I will be joining you all soon , so we want to say Merry Heavenly Christmas from all of us. The year 2020 has turned out to be the worst of years here on earth, and it’s going to get worse in the New Year. I hope there are pets in heaven, as I wish to bring my kitty “Precious” with me. Love you al....Dad, Mom, Eddy, Donna, Judy, Grandma, Grandpa, and all our relatives.((hugs for all))

I never forget the days when I used to see Donna and Aunt edie chumming with one another at Grampa culp's Place when her Mom and my Grandfather were married. Just think of the both of them having Tea with one another up in the high heavens and enjoying each others company alongside with my Mom laura and Great Grama Nellie. May god rest your soul Cousin Donna.

My dearest sister, it's the two year anniversary of your untimely death, and your absence in my life is so painful I don't think it will ever leave me. I might not have told you, but I want you to know how you were my biggest inspiration over the years and how I always looked up to you as my big sister. I can't bere the thought of going home for a visit and not seeing you and staying with you in Orville. We shared such great laughter and good times together doing things over the years, I would give anything to re-live them. You will never be too far away because I will always hold you close in my heart sis, and I know when my time is near, you will be there to take my hand and show me the way home like always.....(don't forget your brush)...xo

Do you remember waking me up when you would come home from a date with Albert? I always looked forward to brushing your hair and listening to your tales of where you went with him and the fun you had. Sometimes if it was a late night and I fell asleep , I would leave a note on the dresser for you to wake me up. If I had no paper, I would use bobby-pins, you would always get a chuckle.....lol.
